I thought so :-)

Can we use the same trick we use for the fontification of $, i.e., put a
closing ] as a comment in the same line?

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\begin{document}

Text {%
  this is indented and we trust that a closing \} will come.%
}

Text [% ]
and the text is not indented.
\end{document}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Does this make sense?

Best, Arash
